Christmas Memories, yesterday

I tried posting this yesterday, but it wouldn't go through, so I'm trying again today.


 


I had to take J to his 9 month check-up in the morning.  He's getting so big.  He's 20lbs of pure joy!


 


We spent time yesterday reading our snow books.  We read them outside, on a blanket, barefoot, with green grass surrounding us.  Kindof a funny setting but very enjoyable.


 



 


We had an unexpected surprise yesterday.  Grandma stopped over with ornaments for the kids and a Christmas book for each of them.  She even stayed a little while and read them each their new books.


 



 


Grandma doesn't like her picture taken, so I had to snap this real fast, before she noticed.


 


The kids finally got to paint the ornaments I meant to have them paint days ago. 


 



 


 


All of the above was fun and special but the best thing that happened yesterday, last night actually, was that my 5 year old asked Jesus into her heart.  That is the best Christmas memory by far.
